lüll Prophylactic human papillomavirus vaccines Lowy DR; Schiller JTJ Clin Invest 2006[May]; 116 (5): 1167-73Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection causes virtually all cases of cervical cancer, the second most common cause of death from cancer among women worldwide. This Review examines prophylactic HPV subunit vaccines based on the ability of the viral L1 capsid protein to form virus-like particles (VLPs) that induce high levels of neutralizing antibodies. Following preclinical research by laboratories in the nonprofit sector, Merck and GlaxoSmithKline are developing commercial versions of the vaccine. Both vaccines target HPV16 and HPV18, which account for approximately 70% of cervical cancer. The Merck vaccine also targets HPV6 and HPV11, which account for approximately 90% of external genital warts. The vaccines have an excellent safety profile, are highly immunogenic, and have conferred complete type-specific protection against persistent infection and associated lesions in fully vaccinated women. Unresolved issues include the most critical groups to vaccinate and when the vaccine's cost may be low enough for widespread implementation in the developing world, where 80% of cervical cancer occurs.|*Papillomavirus Vaccines[MESH]|Adolescent[MESH]|Adult[MESH]|Age Factors[MESH]|Animals[MESH]|Cancer Vaccines[MESH]|Capsid Proteins/chemistry[MESH]|Drug Industry/*methods[MESH]|Female[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Middle Aged[MESH]|Models, Biological[MESH]|Oncogene Proteins, Viral/chemistry[MESH]|Papillomaviridae/*metabolism[MESH]|Uterine Cervical Neoplasms/prevention & control/virology[MESH]|Viral Vaccines/*pharmacology[MESH] |
